Current opinions on endosperm transfer cells in maize.
Review in Plant cell reports, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Endosperm transfer cells (ETC) mainly occur in the endosperm epithelial layer near the pedicel. They transport the nutrient unloaded by the maternal vascular tissue to filial tissues. Wall ingrowths of ETC can facilitate solute transportation. Sugar, especially glucose, is found to modulate the promoter activity of ZmMRP-1, a determinant of transfer cell-specific expression. The ZmMRP-1-encoded protein can transactivate the promoters of transfer cell-specific genes. Signalling and early events leading to wall ingrowth formation depend upon gene expression. Sucrose synthase and the cytoskeleton probably play a primary role in the wall ingrowth formation. The major solutes transferred by ETC are amino acids, sucrose, and monosaccharides, which is consistent with the expression of their transporters and transport-associated genes. In this paper, we review current opinions on the differentiation, wall ingrowth formation, and function of ETC in maize. According to the experimental materials provided by predecessors, we also give some speculations about the differentiation mechanisms of ETC and process of wall ingrowth formation.
